The up-and-coming former industrial district of Kanalbyen plays host to this contemporary, design-led restaurant on the ground floor of a modern apartment building at the water’s edge; take in the view over the Lillebælt Strait, while the service team look after your every need. Behind the scenes Michael Nørtoft creates refined, technically accomplished fish and vegetable dishes with deceptively simple names – maybe ‘brill, asparagus and ramson’ or ‘blackberries, cep and fennel' – which belie the complexity that goes into their creation. To complement are some interesting wine and juice pairin

This extraordinary building stands directly in the fjord and its unique interior is equally striking. Dinner is an engaging, multi-course affair that begins with snacks served at the gorgeous glass-topped bar. Then it’s through to the aptly named ‘Sail Room’ for the main event, though you may be taken to other areas of the building for some courses. The creative, sophisticated dishes showcase exceptional produce, including Limfjord mussels and wonderful local trout. The passionate service team help to make this a truly special destination.

Set in the old Østerbro machine factory on the edge of town, ARO upholds the theme of having skilled craftsmen in its workshop.

The atmosphere, too, is pleasingly laid-back, with both the service team and the chefs looking after the guests.

This elegant wooden cabin with panoramic windows sits amongst the trees in the middle of Munkebjerg Forest. An open fire burns in one corner of the room and the well-spaced tables make for an intimate dining experience. Not only is the setting at one with nature but the menu is too, bringing the outside inside via the herbs, berries and flowers that grace the plates and the shelves. The chefs and the service team work together to tell their story – which is centred around honesty, nature and craftsmanship – through dishes such as grilled scallop with beurre blanc and creamed celeriac.

Yves Le Lay’s latest restaurant takes up residence on a semi-pedestrianised street in the heart of the Old Town; its name is a reference to Marcel Proust’s story ‘In Search of Lost Time’, where a bite of a madeleine opens up childhood memories. At this cosy spot, Le Lay recounts his own memories of growing up in France through a well-paced tasting menu, where he draws you into his world as he personally presents the dishes and their individual stories. The rich, flavourful sauces are a highlight – and you’ll find the aforementioned madeleines in the Mont Blanc dessert, alongside a chestnut sor
